Default US talk radio

Very long feature just finished on "Broadcasting House" on Radio 4 this
morning , about right wing and left wing stations in the US and the up and
coming liberal station.

Played air checks of various broadcasters.

Are these what used to be called shock jocks? They are more shocking than
ours in the UK!

Rush Limbaugh seems to be in a sad state, his catchphrase is "Talent on loan
from God"!

G Gordon Liddy seems very opinionated.

I quote from the programme "radio is to the right".

I wonder if the new station, Air America, will be welcomed to widen the
dialogue. Will advertisers aim to the liberal market?
